FORAKER SLAPS
AT ROOSEVELT
Points Out Dangers of Abuse
of Executive Power in
Speech to G. A. R.
TALKS AT PERRYSBURG
Addresses Veterans at Indication of
Monument on Site of Old Fort
Ielgs Seattle Beaten In
Contention Race.
TOLEDO. O.. Sept. 1. A street parade
of a civic character, preparatory to the
G. A. R. parade of veteran tomorrow,
and the dedication of the Fort Mei
monument at Perrysburg, " miles from
Toledo, divided lntereat today In the
2A annual encampment of the Grand
Army of the Republic. Forty thousand
Journeyed by trolley and boat to the his
toric spot where Generat William Henry
Harrison in 1S12-13 checked the ambitions
of the British general. Proctor. Manjr
speeches were made, chief among thera
being the utterances of Senator J. B.
Foraker. Governor Harris and General
Bennett Young, representing Governor
Willson, of Kentucky, who was unable
to be present.
Artillery Thunders Salute.
When Mr. Harris and hi party arrived
en the ground shortly after 11 o'clock
this forenoon, the Governor's salute of
17 guns was thundered from the field
pieces of Battery B. When the bunting
which draped the newly-covered monu
ment was drawn, four gups of the bat
tery belched forth a salute and the bands
broke Into patriotic music, which was
almost drowned by the cheers from -several
thousand throats.
The Gubernatorial "party, which in
cluded Senators Foraker and Dick, came
to Perrysburg in launches and from that
village was transported to the battlefield
In automobiles, preceded by the band.
Mr. Foraker spoke In part as follows:
Whei General Harrison fought here there
were but 18 states In our Union; now thera
re 48. Then we had lew than 10.000,000 of
population: now ha have 87.C0.0ft0. Then we
fronted only on the Atlantic; now we face
both oceans. Then our Industries were few
In number and restricted In character: now
they are multitudinous and expanded. Then
we had only simple and primitive conditions;
now the moat highly-developed and compli
cated fcnown to modern covllixatlon.
But greater than the expanse of our domain,
greater than the multiplication of our wealth,
greater than any power that . ha come to
u. greater than any glory we have achieved,
greater than any of our physical accom
plishments., ha ben the Improvement of
our people Intellectually, morally and In all
that makes for good eltltenshlp. There never
waa a time when they stood less In need
of a statutory straight-Jacket, or when they
lera deserved to be discredited In their own
estimation and before the world by official
censure and public criticism.
Division of Federal Power.
A government under which the people
can accomplish such wonderful success at
Borne and exert such Influence abroad can
not be too thoroughly studied or too care
fully guarded". Practically all the greatest
publicists agree that the most vital feature
of the general plan of our Government Is
found In ths distribution of Its power among
three separate. Independent and co-ordinate
departments.
It Is fundamental that neither shall en
croach upon the other. The Legislative shall
not. without constitutional authority, take
from or add to the powers of the Judiciary,
nor shall the Judiciary annul or embarrass
the lawfully-enacted will of the Legislative.
Working In harmony as their official duties
require the result k sj near perfection as
human Imperfection will allow. We can only
speculate as to the disappointing conse
quences that would ensue If they should work
at cross purposes. To the credit of these
departments, neither has ever willfully In
fringed upon or denied the power of the
other. Through all the years that have
parsed they hsve been so true to the pur
pose of their creation that they have care
fully respected and Jealously guarded each
the rights of the ota'r.
Danger la Executive Power.
But worse than legislative and Judicial
discord would be an Invasion of either of
the other departments by the executive. All
Ihe powers of that department are consoli
dated In a single individual. He W the coin-mander-ln-chlef
of the Army and tha
Navy. He has in his own hands all the
tremendous power of public patronage. He
not only has under his control, and subject
to his will, so far as their tenure Is con
cerned, thousands of officeholders, but he
has even more immediately under his com
mand la constantly Increasing Army of
more, at the present lime, than .1000 special
agents. Inspectors and secret service men
whose highest law Is his bidding.
Inder a bold, aggressive, unscrupulous
and designing executive this power of ap
pointment of these armies of appointees
could be o eserclsed and directed as to
destroy the independence and Impair the
usefulness and efficiency of both the other
departments.
Such an abuse of power would be a vio
lation of the Constitution, which, if long
acquiesced In. might eventually work Its
overthrow. Such practices are of such
serious character that they are not likely
often to occur, but nevertheless we should
be ever watchful to rebuke them when
thev do occur, lest In them we find our un
doing. Open and avowed -enemies are not
always the most dangerous. They are fre
quently subtle Influences that undermine
and thwart human endeavor before they are
recognised. This is particularly true In
Governmental expenditure.
Eternal Vigilance Heeded.
All the teachings of history proclaim that
there Is no safety except where (here Is
eternal vigilance. If there should come ne
cessity for changes In our organised law.
let us make them In accordance with Its
provisions, having the requisite patience and
patriotism therefor and ever remembering
and believing that -what Washington and
his associates framed and Lincoln and his
associates with the help of that grand old
t'nlon Army perfected. Is good enough for
you .and me. and for all who are coming
after us.
Festivities at Night.
Tonight the Woman's Relief Corps held
a reception to -Commander-in-Chief Bur
ton, of the G. A. R.. and the ex-prisoners
of war held a campnre at Memorial
Hall. Mr. Foraker adressed an audience
of negro veterans at the African Meth
odist Episcopal Church.
The spectacular feature of the evening
was the "Venetian night on the river."
All the pleasure craft in the harbor were
covered with flags, streamers and lights
and moved down the river under raya of
powerful searchlights, thousands of peo
ple watching their progress.
At the various state headquarters to-'
day was spent in issuing Instructions
for the formation of the parade tomor
row. The contest fdr the honor of enter
taining the next annnal encampment of
the G. A. R. today narrowed to Atlanta,
Ga.. and Salt Lake City, with represen
tstlves of the latter city claiming vic
tory. That Wsshlngton State posts are sup
porting Salt Lake City was confirmed by
O. H. Boardman, department com-.
mander -of that suite. Seattle is out ' of
the race.
Veterans of 108 Assemble.
BOSTON. 8ept. 1. Sailors and soldiers
who served In the Army and Navy of
the United States during the Spanish
War gathered today, at Fanuell Hall,
more than 5000 strong, for the formal
opening of the fifth annual encampment
of the United Spanish War Veterans. To
morrow the great parade, the feature
of the encampment programme, will be
held. Seattle. Wash., Saratoga. N. Y.,
and Oklahoma City are each seeking the
next encampment. .
Wyman Faces Court-Martial.
NEW YORK, Sept. 1. The eourt-martlai
of Lieutenant Guy Wyman, Tenth United
States Cavalry, was begun on Governor's
Island today on a. charge of passing as a
stride man whi his wire was living.
Lieutenant Wyman' a defence was that he
believed his wife had divorced him.
Lieutenant Wyman hss the reputation of
being one of the finest horsemen in the
service as w-ell as a marksman of the
first class.
SAYS LIFE IS IN
RCSSIAX SEEKS PROTECTION OF
POLICE AT SEATTLE.
Asserts He Has Bees. Condemned to
Death for Betraying Fellow
Countryman. SEATTLE, Wash.. Sept. 1 Speclal.)
For informing the police that Iza Ber
mon was an escaped murderer from Vlad
ivostok, J. Negoloff has been condemned
to death by Russian revolutionists in
Seattle, according" to the story he told
today at police headquarters, where he
went to seek protection.
Berr.ion was arrested in the first place
for an assault on Negoloffa sister. Nego
loff then told that Bermon, who has also
been known as Carlson,' was Imprisoned
at Vladivostok for a political murder,
that he escaped, killing another man,
taking from his body J1500. He was re
captured, but again escaped and came
to America, the Negoloffs Joining him
here.
Negoloff claims that he has lost his job
In a -tailoring establishment, his em
ployer being a Russian and a political"
sympathizer of Bermon. He also says
that he has learned that a meeting of
Russians was held In' an 'old church in
the southern part of the city last night,
at whleh those present bound themselves
by oath, first to raise money to assist
Bermon to freedom, and then to put to
death NegoloTf. his betrayer.
Negoloff asked that an officer be sent
home with him to get his clothing and
belongings, as he was afraid to return
home alone.
FINDS SUNKEN WARSHIPS
Japanese ' Salvage Vessel May Re
cover Three Lost In War.
VICTORIA, B. C Sept. 1. Advices
from Japan state that the sunken
battleship Tashlma has been located
by the steamer Saruhasht Maru. a sal
vage vessel sent by the naval depart
ment to search for Japanese war
ships lost during the war with Russia,
and investigations are being carried
out to hscertaln If the battleship can
be raised. The Saruhaahl Maru has
also located the Russian warship Se
bastopol and the approximate place
where the cruiser Takasago sunk has
been located. . .
She Is now searching for the battle
ship Hatsuse. The sinking of the
Yashlma and Hatsuse was due to the
placing of mechanical mines ' by
Rear-Admiral Wiren, on May 1. 1904.
The Russian officers observed that
the Japanese warships,-while engaged
in gauging at Port Arthur, cruised
continually over the same ground, and
a mine field was laid Into which the
vessels steamed, and the Yashaml,
Hatsuse and cruiser Yoshlno went
down the same morning, all with
heavy loss.'
News of the sinking of the Yashlma
was suppressed for six months by the
Japanese government, and reports of
her loss was always officially contra
dicted with the result that not until
news of her destruction waa published
In the .official reports at the end of
the war was it generally kwown that
she had been sunk when tha Hatsuse
and Yoshlno went down. ,
CROWD WAITS FOR TICKETS
Two Hundred Persons in' Line 'All
Night at Bungalow Theater.
That extraordinary Interest is being
taken by the public In the opening of the
Bungalow Theater next Sunday by the
Baker Stock Company was amply indi
cated by the demand for season tickets
yesterday afternoon and last night. At
1 o'clock this morning a line of nearly
2V persons stretched along the street
from the theater entrance. These anxious
playgoers proposed to wait .until the box-
office opens at 10 o'clock this morning.
The management served a midnight sup
per to the throng of prospective patrons
and they then made themselves as com
fortable as the chill morning air and lack
of bedroom accommodations' permitted.
The opening play will be ."Dorothy Ver
non of Haddon Hall."
SECURE LAND 'AT ASTORIA

SENATOR
HEYBURN
IS
Unanimously Indorsed by Re
publican Convention in
Idaho.
ATTACKS DIRECT PRIMARY
Nominee Declares He Is Opposed to
Any Platform Which Attempts '
to Legislate for People and
Pledge Officials.
BOISE. Idaho, Sept. 1. (Special.) Sen
ator Heyburn was renominated by the
State Republican Convention today. In
accepting the nomination he expreesed the
opinion that conventions should make rec
ommendations to nominees instead of
pledging them to any particular reform.
There were 301 delegates at the conven
tion and Fred R. Reed, of Shoshone
County, was chosen temporary chairman.
Thomas R. Hamer was named as the
permanent chairman. After his address
to the convention, Chairman Hamer called
for nominations for United States Sen
ator. Although John P. Gray, of Shoshone,
had been selected to place Senator Hey
burn's name before the convention a
dozen men Jumped up in various parts of
the hall and in one voice they presented
the Senator's name. Considerable con
fusion followed and the chairman was un
able to accord recognition to Gray.
Before the convention realized what had
happened Senator Heyburn had been nom
inated. Attack on Direct Primary. . . 'm ,
Senator Heyburn made an attack on the
direct primary and the election of SerTa
tors by popultr vote. The speaker said
it wna only right that he who filled the
position of United States Senator should
have ever in mind the Interests 'of the
state he represented,- but that if those
Interests were not lit accord with the wel
fare of the Nation then it must become
the duty of tha United States Senator to
look first to the interests of the Nation.
The speaker referred to talk of amenoV
ing the Constitution of the United States.
It should remain as it Is. he said.
"It is the bulwark behind which ths
people of the Nation stand against the
whole work, an ark of safety," he con
tinued. "The Constitution should be
better studied by the people. Under it
the people do not seem to understand
what rights they have and they are very
liable to go too far in conventions of
this character. The Constitution limits
the power of the people. Sometimes crit
icism, unjust to the United States Sen
ators comes because the people say to
the lawmakers, give us this law or give
us that law, when they do not know
whether a Legislator, in doing so. would
violate his oath under the Constitution."
Should Not Pledge Nominees.
Senator Heyburn expressed the view
that conventions should make recommen
dations to Its nominees Instead pf pledg
ing them to any particular reform.
"I have always opposed, as I do now,
said the Senator, "any platform which
may show any attempt to legislate for
the people. You are empowered to adopt
such a platform. You may recommend,
and If the officers the people elect find
your recommendations sound and a base
for legislation they will act. If they do
not find your recommendations sound you
must not be offended, for you may be
wrong."
Majority Must Govern.
. The writing of a platform was taken
up by the speakers who urged that the
words "We pledge the legislature" ba
avoided in the platform. "You are
here to recommend, not to pledge," he
said, "the more clearly we understand
the relation between state and citizens,
citizens and state and citizens them
selves, the more likely we are not to
make mistakes. Self-governing peo
ple are entitled to be heard. The slily
ratch words that -have been adapted by
the Democratic party The people will
govern, will not catch anyone. The
Democratic party would have the
mi torlty govern. The majority of the
people has always governed. Is gov
erning arid will govern, as provided by
the Constitution."
OWES DEBT TO NEGROES
Eugene Chafin Says He Was Saved
From Drowning by Colored Man.
flFATTT.K. Wash.. Sent. 1. At a recep
tion given Eugene W. Chafln, Prohibition
candidate for President, this afternoon, a
committee of negroes headed by Ed Clay
ton, editor of a negro weekly, thanked
him for saving the life of a negro state
employe in the Springfield riots.
Mr. Chafln said that he had been saved
from drowning by a colored man when
he was a boy and that he owed the race a
debt ever since.
In his afternoon speech Mr. Chafin said
that local option in country districts was
driving the disorderly element of Illi
nois to the cities. He prophesied that If
the state did not go prohibition that there
would be enough vicious men In the' city
to burn It to the ground within four
years.
In explaining his methods of enforcing
prohibition, if elected, the candidate said
that he would call a caucus in Congress
and create seats if there were not enough
to make a three-quarters vote. He threat
ened to stuff Juries, as was done with
the Mormons in Utah, to gain his ends.

RENOMINATED
THIS IS REAL
MORE THAN A YEAR'S BUSINESS FOR AN ORDINARY PIANO
DEALER CROWDED INTO THE MONTH OF AUGUST
AT EILERS PIANO HOUSE.
By Far the Biggest Record for August Ever Witnessed. And We Are Going
to Sell 360 New Pianos This Month. While Slightly Advanced Prices
Will Have to Be Put Into Effect. They Will Still Be Placed Much
Below Usual Terms Will Be Arranged to Suit Any Reasonable Buyer.
Investigate the List of the Names and Pianos Sold.
We stated at the. outset of the month that we were determined to make up
for lost time. We had made up our minds that more pianos would have to
be sold during the month of August than ever heretofore in the same month.
We recognized that buyers would be found in plenty if sufficient induce
ments in the way of price, and also terms of payment, were made on the
right kind of pianos.
We took some of our choicest and best-known makes, and cut pres un
mercifully, making the cost of each piano to the retail buyer less than what
small dealers or agents would have to pay at the factory, and we made the
terms of payment so extraordinarily easy that many a home owner who had
been putting off buying on account of too high prices or payments, saw his
way clear to make his home a musical one.
A satisfied buyer, merchants say, is the- best advertisement- Here in
this list are nearly 250 "best advertisements," for every buyer during this
sale has unquestionably become a friend and well-wisher of Eilers Piano
House, not only because our prices were considerably lower, and the quality
of our stock considerably higher than elsewhere, but also because they found
here just a little bit more considerate treatment, a little bit better attention
to detail, a little more painstaking and positively prompt delivery service
(we have our own delivery service), than could possibly be expected else
where. But read over the list: .. .

cellent tone, carved legs, -worth surely $150 half price takes it yes, we will
make it $72 $6 down and $4 a month.

A superb Fischer, inlaid with' mother-of-pearl, carved legs and round
corners, $52. .
An Antisel, also splendidly pearl-inlaid piano must have cost $700 or
$800 when new now $85. '
